Jerry Kintigh, 79, a retired Air Force colonel from Mt. Lebanon and a proud Nittany Lion, counts five Penn State University degrees among himself, his wife and their children. Yet his affinity for the school is rivaled these days by something almost as intense: his anger at how the child sex abuse scandal rocking his alma mater has been handled. One group he is especially upset with is Penn State's 32-member board of trustees, which he said seemed to do little for months after a grand jury investigation into former assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky came to light in March.

ROCHESTER, N.H.? Mitt Romney sought to cast himself as an everyday guy ? complete with skinny legs and a fear of getting ?a pink slip? ? in an effort to show a more human side and connect with Granite State voters two days before the high-stakes primary.?I know what it?s like to wonder whether you?re going to get fired. A couple of times I wondered if I was going to get a pink slip,? said Romney to a crowd of roughly 700 voters at the Rochester Opera House.
Halftime: Tebow making Steelers pay

DENVER- The Steelers are trailing the Broncos, 20-6, at halftime because their strategy against Tim Tebow is backfiring. Pittsburgh dared the Broncos quarterback to throw by playing man-to-man coverage with no help over the top, and Tebow has hurt the NFL's top-ranked pass defense with several deep passes. After zero passing yards in the first quarter, Tebow lit up the Steelers for 185 yards passing in the second.
S.C. GOP bigwigs keep quiet

Republicans use lots of tough rhetoric when they say it's imperative to throw Barack Obama out of the White House. But most of South Carolina's highest-profile GOP politicians have so far been silent on endorsing their choice for the job. With just days to go before the candidates descend on South Carolina after Tuesday's vote in the New Hampshire primary, few of the state's top elected leaders have publicly committed to a candidate in a race where the field's leanings go from moderate to tea party. While Gov. Nikki Haley's endorsement of Mitt Romney has
In Debate, ABC's Stephanopoulos
Presses Romney on Contraception Ruling

During Saturday's Republican presidential debate in New Hampshire, hosted by ABC, co-moderator George Stephanopoulos bizarrely pressed candidate Mitt Romney on whether the former Massachusetts governor believes the U.S. Supreme Court should overturn a 1965 ruling that a constitutional right to privacy bars states from banning contraception. (Video below) Romney, befuddled by the off the wall nature of the question on such an issue that is not on any state's legislative agenda, eventually observed that it was a "silly thing" for the ABC co-moderator to ask such an irrelevant question. Stephanopoulos's odd persistence which dragged on the discussion with Romney for

Speaking to reporters after Saturday?s Republican primary debate in New Hampshire, Democratic National Committee chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz said Republican voters would be wise to question front-runner Mitt Romney?s conservative credentials. ?This is a candidate without any conviction at all, willing to say or do anything to get elected,? she said. ?Tonight he talked about how supportive he was of overturning Roe v. Wade, yet just in 2002 he was a candidate for governor who was totally supportive of Roe v. Wade and a woman?s right to choose. I mean, that?s a pretty significant issue to have such

Orlando, FL.-A once-cent copper coin from the earliest days of the U.S. Mint in 1793 has sold for a record $1.38 million at a Florida auction. James Halperin of Texas-based Heritage Auctions told The Associated Press on Saturday that the sale was "the most a United States copper coin has ever sold for at auction." The coin was made at the Mint in Philadelphia in 1793, the first year that the U.S. made its own coins. Heritage officials said in a news release that the name of the buyer was not revealed but that he was "a major collector."

Big Winner: Romney. Big

The big winner tonight was Mitt Romney for one simple reason: No one laid a finger on him. Romney repeatedly turned his fire on Obama while all the non-Romneys fought with each other. Paul called Gingrich a draft dodger. Perry called Paul a hypocrite. Paul called Santorum a big-government conservative. And Romney just stood back and watched it all. Whenever the moderators asked him to join the fray he demurred and turned the discussion toward Obama. He even went after the moderators for asking a ?silly question? and when asked to criticize his rivals said everyone

It was the tea party the Obamas just couldn?t resist. A White House ?Alice in Wonderland? costume ball ? put on by Johnny Depp and Hollywood director Tim Burton ? proved to be a Mad-as-a-Hatter idea that was never made public for fear of a political backlash during hard economic times, according to a new tell-all. ?The Obamas,? by New York Times correspondent Jodi Kantor, tells of the first Halloween party the first couple feted at the White House in 2009. It was so over the top that ?Star Wars?

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said the mainstream media and President Barack Obama ?want to face Mitt Romney? in the general election.? She made those comments on ?Justice With Judge Jeanine? on FOX News on Saturday during the same time the Republican presidential candidates were debating in New Hampshire on ABC. Palin said the mainstream media would take a hands-off approach to Romney ?in order to bolster Romney?s chances? to ?finally face Obama.? According to Palin, the mainstream media and Obama would then portray Romney as someone who is out of

If Rush doesn?t make a move, recent history will repeat itself. Romney?s multimillion-dollar ad buys and the mainstream media will destroy Rick Santorum before the end of January. Though he is an excellent conservative candidate and could beat Obama in 2012, Rick will be called ?unelectable? by so many pundits over the next three weeks that it will become conventional wisdom.

GOFFSTOWN, N.H. ? Republican presidential candidates Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum quarreled over their credentials to be president and their capacity to defeat President Obama during a debate in which all the candidates squabbled over spending, leadership, national security and military service. But the debate failed to live up to expectations that Romney?s rivals would use the occasion to blunt his momentum. His opponents criticized him sporadically and to little effect, allowing Romney to glide easily through the nearly two-hour forum. Recent polls show

Denver - Demaryius Thomas caught an 80-yard touchdown on the first play of overtime as the Denver Broncos beat the Pittsburgh Steelers 29-23 in the AFC wild-card round. Denver will play at New England next week. It was the second touchdown pass from Denver quarterback Tim Tebow, who threw for 316 yards on just 10 completions. He also rushed for 50 yards. It was the first non-sudden death playoff overtime in NFL history. More details to come.
